Doctor in the House: Facing Mpox in 2024

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared mpox a public health emergency of international concern. This doesn’t make it a pandemic like COVID-19 was, but it does mean that countries have to introduce measures to ensure that mpox doesn’t turn into a pandemic. Infectious diseases consultant Dr Timothy William explains what we need to know about mpox strains, symptoms, transmission and vaccination.
